This Is How To Get More Pizza When You Order!!
Not only do you get more pizza, you can get it for cheaper too!
Everybody has been in this situation before: It’s you and a friend, you are both starving, but low on cash. What can you do to make the most out of your money? Most people would say ordering two of the 12-inch pizzas would be the go-to move. But if you have been doing that, you’ve been wasting money your entire life.
Thank goodness for Twitter. A twitter user has recently come to the rescue of broke college students (and face it, practically everybody else too) by showing that it makes more sense to just buy one 18-inch pizza instead of the two medium ones.
Here's a useful counterintuitive fact: one 18 inch pizza has more 'pizza' than two 12 inch pizzas pic.twitter.com/hePSpG0pJs

Even though the diameter of the large pizza is smaller than the combined diameters of the two medium pies, it still has a larger total area. To get the area of the circle, you have to square the radius (which is half of the diameter) and multiply that by pi(about 3.14). This means the area of an 18-inch pizza is 254 square inches, while the combined area of two 12-inch pies is only 226 inches
If the math is too much for you, just be like this guy and stick to the one with more crust. #CrustAllDayBaby
